【美術館巡り】印象派　モネからアメリカへウスター美術館所蔵

公式サイト→https://worcester2024.jp/

行ってきた。ネタバレ（？）なので折ります。

印象派の展示。すでに終わってると何故か思い込んでて「また行きそびれた……（虚無顔）」と思ってたらGoogleカレンダーに期間を登録してたのを発見し、ギリギリ滑り込んだ。

最終1週間（？）は予約制になってたのでちょうどよかったかもしれない。が、予約制でも混んではいた。

印象派好きの日本人（偏見）の例に漏れずわたくしも大変印象派が好きです。ただ、今回の展示はアメリカに渡った印象派がメインになっていたのでモネのピントが合ってない感じとかを期待していると期待外れになるかもしれない。

個人的にトーナリズムの表現方法は東山魁夷の日本画ぽさを感じてとても好きだった。（ポスカ買った）（ポスカ選んでたら「ポスカはラインナップがちょっと…（イマイチ）」みたいに言ってるお姉さんがおり、ぐぬぬぬぬとなった）（わたくしは好きですわ！！！）

とくにドワイド・ウィリアム・トライオンの「川、日暮れ」はこれと雰囲気が似てて夏の絵かな……？と感じた

（山種美術館所蔵）

帰りに歩き花見をしました（背景に人入ってたけど消しゴムマジックで消せたスゴー）

途中で投稿してしまった／(^o^)＼

以外追���分

最近光と色の表現方法の本を少しずつ読んでいて、最後の方にあった「ハーミット・クリーク・キャニオン」は「���の環境光の青がこう…なるほど……👀」とちょっと今までとは違う見方ができた。あと、印象派でよくある（？）メインモチーフの後ろに水面がある構図は水面からの反射光がバックライトの役割をしてて浮き上がるような表現になるのかもな……とかも思った（あってるかどうかはわからん）

川瀬巴水が好きなのもモネや印象派が好きなのも「水面」っていう共通点があるようだ。水面描けるようになりたい……

‘Fragile Microbiomes’ by bio-artist Anna Dumitriu

1. SYPHILIS DRESS- This dress is embroidered with images of the corkscrew-shaped bacterium which causes the sexually transmitted disease syphilis. These embroideries are impregnated with the sterilised DNA of the Nichols strain of the bacterium - Treponema pallidum subsp. pallidum - which Dumitriu extracted with her collaborators.

2. MICROBE MOUTH- The tooth at the centre of this necklace was grown in the lab using an extremophile bacterium which is part of the species called Serratia (Serratia N14) that can produce hydroxyapatite, the same substance that tooth enamel is made from.

The handmade porcelain teeth that make up this necklace have been coated with glazes derived from various bacterial species that live in our mouths and cause tooth decay and gum disease, including Porphyromonas gingivalis, which can introduce an iron-containing light brown stain to the glaze.

3. TEETH MARKS: THE MOST PROFOUND MYSTERY- In his 1845 essay “On Artificial Teeth”, W.H. Mortimer described false teeth as “the most profound mystery” because they were never discussed. Instead, people would hide the stigma of bad teeth and foul breath using fans.

This altered antique fan is made from animal bone and has been mended with gold wire, both materials historically used to construct false teeth (which would also sometimes incorporate human teeth). The silk of the fan and ribbon has been grown and patterned with two species of oral pathogens: Prevotella intermedia and Porphyromonas gingivalis. These bacteria cause gum disease and bad breath, and the latter has also recently been linked to Alzheimer’s disease.

4. PLAGUE DRESS- This 1665-style 'Plague Dress' is made from raw silk, hand-dyed with walnut husks in reference to the famous herbalist of the era Nicholas Culpeper, who recommended walnuts as a treatment for plague. It has been appliquéd with original 17th-century embroideries, impregnated with the DNA of Yersinia pestis bacteria (plague). The artist extracted this from killed bacteria in the laboratory of the National Collection of Type Cultures at the UK Health Security Agency.

The dress is stuffed and surrounded by lavender, which people carried during the Great Plague of London to cover the stench of infection and to prevent the disease, which was believed to be caused by 'bad air' or 'miasmas'. The silk of the dress references the Silk Road, a key vector for the spread of plague.

5. BACTERIAL BAPTISM- based on a vintage christening gown which has been altered by the artist to tell the story of research into how the microbiomes of babies develop, with a focus on the bacterium Clostridioides difficile, originally discovered by Hall and O’Toole in 1935 and presented in their paper “Intestinal flora in new-born infants”. It was named Bacillus difficilis because it was difficult to grow, and in the 1970s it was recognised as causing conditions from mild antibiotic-associated diarrhoea to life-threatening intestinal inflammation. The embroidery silk is dyed using stains used in the study of the gut microbiome and the gown is decorated with hand-crocheted linen lace grown in lab with (sterilised) C. difficile biofilms. The piece also considers how new-borns become colonised by bacteria during birth in what has been described as ‘bacterial baptism’.

6. ZENEXTON- Around 1570, Swiss physician and alchemist Theophrastus Paracelsus coined the term ‘Zenexton’, meaning an amulet worn around the neck to protect from the plague. Until then, amulets had a more general purpose of warding off (unspecified) disease, rather like the difference today between ‘broad spectrum’ antibiotics and antibiotics informed by genomics approaches which target a specific organism.

Over the next century, several ideas were put forward as to what this amulet might contain: a paste made of powdered toads, sapphires that would turn black when they leeched the pestilence from the body, or menstrual blood. Bizarre improvements were later made: “of course, the toad should be finely powdered”; “the menstrual blood from a virgin”; “collected on a full moon”.

This very modern Zenexton has been 3D printed and offers the wearer something that genuinely protects: the recently developed vaccine against Yersinia pestis, the bacterium that causes plague.

always happy about the fact that in 2012, mikey often asked donnie questions if he didn't understand something and donnie always answered no matter what

this can be seen in a bunch of episodes but my favorite example of it it's the one in half shell heroes where mikey is extremely excited to be in the museums and is the one actively asking donnie questions about the exhibits they saw and also actively listening to donnie's explanation (before raph got silly lmao). he was very excited to learn!!!

And while it's true that mikey would lose interest quite fast if the explanation got too lengthy with too many technical terms, it doesn't change the fact that he does retain the info donnie is always rambling on about different things!!! (even if mikey himself doesn't notice he's doing it lol) and also i find it very sweet that no matter if donnie himself got annoyed, donnie would always answer the questions. no matter what. he would always try to explain if he didn't understand something

This is prob because mikey is the one brother who is often seeking out donnie to pass time around him Meaning that donnie might have used mikey as his rubber ducky whenever mikey hangs out with him while he's working (explained him a lot of his experiments and theories while trying to solve them himself and in this way mikey also learnt in the process WHILE spending time with his brother! win win!)

it also helps donnie because accompanies him while not letting him get lonely in his lab 24/7, sometimes explaining things to someone makes it better to understand it yourself AND it's shown in the comics that donnie is quite used to his brothers just Living as background noise and literally cannot function without it lmao

They are literally the two smart kids in the family even if none of them notice it and it's all because mikey looks up to his brother and is like an sponge with donnie around. donnie is actively teaching mikey and mikey is learning! even if they have no idea they are doing it

#fer silly twt rambling #i wasnt going to post it here but i think yall will like this one lol #STEM KIDS!! #they mean so much to me #literally is so important to me that donnie; if not stressed the fuck out by a lot of things going on; would always explain calmly to mikey #thats his only little brother!!! hes thoughts are prob 'if mikey asks i must answer. im such a cool older bro' #makes my heart warm with joy #ALSO #mikey looks up to don and wants to do the same things as don does based on how he mimics him in that one ep where donnie is silly goofy #i need an ep of 2012 b team visiting museums and being happy and excited about learning #the b in b team stands for best friends!!! #tmnt #tmnt 2012 #tmnt mikey #tmnt michelangelo #tmnt donnie #tmnt donatello

For #Caturday:

Ceramic bottle modeled in the form of a standing feline, decorated with resist-painted motif. Gallinazo style (aka Virú culture), NW Peru, Early Intermediate Period, c. 200 BCE - 600 CE. Spotted at the American Museum of Natural History NYC.

PS: this vessel may depict the Peruvian subspecies of Pampas Cat aka Northern Colocolo (Leopardus colocola garleppi). The Andean Mountain Cat (Leopardus jacobita) is also often suggested, but their range is more southern and higher elevation than where the Virú were? Also note the stripier legs on the Colocolo similar to the ceramic:

特別展「古代メキシコ」【美術館巡り】

行ってきた

ネタバレ（？）なので短いですが折ります

外国の神話でたまに聞く「地下に死の国がある」っていうのがなんか感覚的に分からんかったんだが、太陽が地面に沈んでいく→太陽は地下に潜る→死の国は地下にある��いう発想は納得できた。

日本だと水平線に太陽が沈むから「海の向こうに黄泉の国がある」になったんかな〜とか思った。

これは夜の太陽（夜だから死んでる（髑髏）だそうで）

人身供犠の文化が強くてどの文化見てても「生贄が〜」とあってなんか考えてしまった。

どこかで見た勉強の話で「（常に平均に収束するから）一番良いときに褒めると次の成績は下がるし、一番悪いときに叱ると次の成績は上がる」というのを思い出していた。なんとなく、「一番悪いときに最後の手段的に生贄を捧げたらその後改善した（本当は何もしなくても改善したけど）」ていう経験が蓄積されて「生贄は有効！」てなったんかなぁなどと思った。食料の長期保存ができない→飢饉に備えられないというのも伺えたので、単純に「口減らし」って意味も始めはあったんじゃなかろうか…とも思った（素人が適当に言うてるだけです）

グッズ

カバンと缶バッジとアクキーは買う予定にしてなかった（ほぼ全部）けど、アクキーは展示で気になったやつが入っててガチャ回した……けどそれが出なくて2回した（出なかった）のと、マヤ文字がどうにも可愛くて買ってしまった……

缶バッジもガチャ。これは意味チョト分からん。カバンのやつは書いてるとおりこれで荷物って意味らしい。そう言われてみると右上が布かなんかで包んだ荷物に見えなくも……？

Artemis will disassemble and clean a fountain pen with the same level of intensity as Butler disassembling and cleaning one of his guns.

Then with Butler it is largely due to the man not having the habit of building 'frivolous' rituals of care into his day so Artemis w #will care for the pens as Butler does (at the end of it all) adore the devices #with Angeline I feel Artemis is just so wholly dedicated to that kind of small act of care when it comes to his mother #(thinking of him composing a unique ringtone for her calls) #I think Fowl Sr is more of a ballpoint pen or a pencil fellow and Artemis will sometimes include his father in the hobby by cleaning #and repairing pens in his father's study while the man works (so he will have the experience of being included through the upkeep) #Tim does appreciate when Artemis shows off some of the special/exclusive inks he purchases #he finds the beauty of the ink a much more accessible aspect of the hobby #that diane ackerman quote about crying in a museum while looking at a piece of yellow sulfur and thinking about how lucky we are to live on #a planet of a natural yellow that is so marvelously yellow #Artemis will do ink tests (when you get a new ink and experiment with it on good quality paper) when his father is in the room for this rea #reason

When Sylvia Plath wrote "I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited."
